Pretty much, though I don't think you need the cell size. You just need
the position in the Tor outbuf in order to compute when the cell gets
written to the kernel.
The flow will be like this:
1. Read bytes from kernel input socket to Tor incoming connection X buffer
1. Turn bytes from Tor incoming connection X buffer into a cell C
1. LOG: Record 'socket_read' event for Cell C ID and timestamp
1. Cell C gets processed
1. Cell C gets packed for next hop
1. Cell C gets written to Tor output connection Y buffer
1. STATE: Store Cell C ID and its position in the Tor output connection Y
buffer in memory
1. STATE: Update buffer position of Cell C whenever output connection Y
writes more cells to kernel output socket
1. LOG: when position indicates Cell C is now in the kernel, record
'socket_write' event for Cell ID and timestamp
1. STATE: Clear state for Cell C
Does that help?
